Washes Over Me

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I heard you went to France Did you walk along the Seine? Watched lovers hand in hand Did you softly call my name? When you sat on a bench After Tuileries And remembered I spoke French Did you have an ache for me? [Pre-Chorus] And when the river of regret Rushes past your door Will you give me just a thought And wish you loved me more? [Chorus] Well, forgive me if I dream Or hold on to memories But sometimes what might have been Washes over me (Washes over me) [Verse 2] Then in some dark cafe Did you drink a glass of wine? The colour of my lips After kissing you all night And my hair was such a mess By the time the morning came You held it off my neck Said you liked it best that way [Pre-Chorus] And when the river of lost years Freezes at your door Will you skate across your tears Just to touch my face once more? [Chorus] Well, forgive me if I dream Or hold on to memories But sometimes what might have been Washes over me (Washes over me) [Bridge] What might have been (What might have been) If she hadn't caught your eye Would I be the one you'd never leave Who would grow old by your side? (Ooh, ooh, ooh) [Chorus] Well, forgive me if I dream Or hold on to memories But sometimes what might have been Washes over me (Washes over me) Washes over me [Outro] I heard you went to France
